RE: Re: nausea

[Guest guest]

Penny, when I have the nausea attacks, I don't throw up. It gets horrible

and intense, then gradually fades and lasts several hours. It's as if sleep

is the only way to get rid of it. It causes me intense exhaustion for

several hours afterward. So far the attacks last from 2 to about 8 hours. I

am tired of it, too.

I hope your situation can be improved!

Re: nausea

Hi Bob...Yeah I have been having bad nausea and I'm so tired of it.

There isn't anything I really can do but throw up and then I feel

better. For a while, crackers, ginger ale, and even green tea were

making me feel better, but it didn't last long. I have anti nausea

meds, but they don't really do much. Last week I was supposed to

start treatment for hepatitis C, but they want me to be more stable

first. I have decompensated cirrhosis, and they will start me out on

a very low dose, but they may decide not to have me do it at all if

they can't get me more stable. My lab tests such as electrolytes are

all over the place. I've gained 13 pounds of ascitic fluid in my

belly again, and my herniated belly button is getting bigger. They

increased my diuretics again. I got my flu shot last week, pnemonia

shot, hepatitis A and B vaccinations this week, and tomorrow I have

to go to the hospital for another ultrasound. By the way, I have

been on social security disability since 2001. I was turned down the

first time, but then got a lawyer who got it for me and never charged

me a cent to do it. So that's my update...Penny
